It is critical that we work with universities to create curricula that provide students entering the workforce with skills and training needed for growing our services business.

[The ultimate question is,] How do people in an existing network operate? ... We estimate that business process transactional services could become a half a trillion dollar market in the next couple of years, and the whole IT industry itself is only $1.2 trillion.

A long time ago, people didn't think there was science in computer science. If you were a member of the IBM Academy, you were in hardware. There was no deep intellectual depth in software. Now people say the same thing about services.

While we do exploratory stuff, we count on the research to help grow the parent. While Bell Labs spent a lot of money, they never really had a strong model on how research impacted the company.

Thomas J. Watson Jr. felt there would be really hard problems that computers could solve.

Open standards are needed for digital technology to continue to develop and create economic growth in the information age. Additionally, open innovation is propelling change in commerce beyond the borders of software and information technology, even into physical goods.
